THE women of Kansas voted for the
first time at the municipal elections
held in that state this week. None but
those born on American soil were per-
mitted to exercise the franchise, and
the result was that while colored wo-
men marched up to the polls and de-
posted their ballots, the foreign-born
wives, mothers and sisters of natur-
allied and natural citizens remained at
home. Contrary to expectation, not all
the women who voted favored eth
er prohibition or the prohibit
ton candidates. This was no
tably the case in Emporia, where fully
one-fourth of the 1893 votes cast by the
ladies were against DR.. J. J. Wright,
the mayoralty candidate of the WO-
mans Christian Temperance Union.
On the whole, the outcome of the cleo
tons was what it would have been if
the ladies had not been invested with
the suffrage, and the politicians are be-
ginning to regard the new arrangement
as beneficial to neither party and as a
nuisance on general principles.-Du-
buque Iowa. Telegraph.
The Telegraph is incorrect when it
states that none but those born on
American soil were allowed to vote, as
no one, whether native or foreign, was
debarred from voting.

strict conformity with the iaw-and it's
directions are very plain and simple
is amply protected by the law. If he
is deceived by purchasers, or if pur-
chasers swear falsely, the responsible
ity rests with the purchaser, and not
with the seller.
The sale of liquors for certain speci-
fed purposes, viz, medical, mechanical
and scientsfic, is necessary. The con-
stitution and laws Of Kansas explicitly
recognize this fact, and authorize drug
gists to sell for such purposes. The
terms under which such sales can be
made are, as we have said, plain and
simple, and the druggist who follows
the law is protected by the law. Those
druggists. therefore, who refuse to take
out permits are making a serious
mistake. They cannot conduct
a drug store unless they sell
| liquor for medical purposes, and if they
sell liquor for any purpose, without {
ermit, they are law breakers. They
had better accept and respect the law
and conduct an honest, legitimate, law
| full business under its provisions
| When they refuse to take out permit
the presumption is that they intend t.
sell 1iqour for illegal purposes. WheI
they take out permit, the presump
ton is that they are going to conduc
an honest business in strict accordance
with the provisions of law. The court
and law officers of the state will al
recognize these facts.

CONSERVATORY CONCERT.
A Large Audience Hears Excellent
Music at The Grand. d.

A large audience, composed of the frends
and patrons of the conservatory of music.
attended the concert given by the teachers
of that institution at the Grand last even
ing. The only adverse criticism that could
be made on the concert as whole was the
length of the programme; its diversity, how
ever, prevented the audience from
becoming restless. Mr.. Porters first
solo, From the Dear Land of Pro-
vince" received a hearty encore, as
did JohnsonS trio for violin, cello and
piano. which was eXcellently played by
Messrs. StOeving, Ransom and Johnson.
Miss May, the contralto, was easily the
favorite of the evening, receiving beauti-
full bouquet and baskets of cut flowers after
each of her solos. She gave Gounods
Spring Song" beautifully, being in excel
lent voice and singing with rare expression.
On an encore she sang an English ditty,
every word of which was easily understood
in every part of the house. Prof.
Zoch played Chopin's ''Nocturne O.
27-2" much better than anything
of similar nature that he has ever given
here. His second number, Chopin's" Po-
lonaise, Op. 3d." was better suited to his
style, and gave abundant opportunity for
the display of the players phenomenal
technique. Miss Gleason delighted her
audience with her rendering of Rubensteins
Ocean Symphony" though one could
not help thinking how inadequate the piano
To the grandeur of the music. She also
played accomplishments for Miss May and
Mr.. Rmgwall, proving herself possessed of
superior abilities in that difficult and unap-
preciated art. One Of the most melodious
numbers on the programme was a either
solo by Mr.. Kruger. Mr.. Ringwalps
cIarionet solos were brilliantly played and
delighted the audience.
